BIO
Both Doug and Meg have been performing together for 3 years. With individual backgrounds in original indie rock and large-scale party bands, Dougie & Meg’s stripped down, rhythmic renditions breathe a fresh take on well-known classics! The act is perfect for cocktail events, social gatherings, conversational settings, dinner settings, private parties, hotel lobbies, lounges, etc. It’s laid back enough for people to socialize and high-energy enough for people to dance if they feel so inclined. Dougie & Meg exude style and energy, all while delivering a dynamic sound that perfectly compliments any venue. We love working with our clients to make sure the music programming for their event is exactly what they want. With Doug & Meg’s wide backgrounds in entertainment, the music programming options are limitless. When appropriate, we really enjoy connecting with our audience, during breaks we often converse with members of the audience creating a comfortable, sociable environment for all. In addition to performing a wide range of stripped-down, well-known favorites, we offer a well-dressed, clean and professional presentation complete with full-spectrum light & sound system great for large-scale events, small, intimate events and everything in between. We also work with other incredible musicians. If you’re looking to add a sax player or percussionist, we can do that too for a fuller sound!
